The BJP leader earned the praise of Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his speech in Lok Sabha on Tuesday on a motion to abrogate special status given to Jammu and Kashmir under Article 370 and bill to split the state into two Union Territories.

Participating in the debate, Namgyan said the people of Ladakh had been fighting for UT status for the last seven decades.

"If Ladakh is today under-developed, then Article 370 and Congress party are responsible for it," the MP said.

In a tweet later, the prime minister said the Ladakh BJP MP coherently presented aspirations of people of the region in his "outstanding" speech.

"My young friend, Jamyang Tseing Namgyal who is @MPLadakh delivered an outstanding speech in the Lok Sabha while discussing key bills on J&K. He coherently presents the aspirations of our sisters and brothers from Ladakh. It is a must-hear," Modi said in the tweet.

He said the majority of the people in Ladakh wanted it to be a Union territory and this was conveyed to then Home Minister Rajnath Singh when he visited the region.

Taking a dig at Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad, he said, "Yesterday, Congress leader in Rajya Sabha (Ghulam Nabi Azad) was screaming his lungs out saying what will happen to Ladakh, what will happen to Ladakh.

"I want to ask him, in 2008 when he was the chief minister his government created eight new districts in J&K. Four were for Kashmir and the people of Jammu fought for an equal number. But Ladakh got nothing. Is this your equality?"

He said the people will proudly unfurl the tricolour in Ladakh as the nation will now have a common flag.
